– Dr. Taz MD
What happens when a clinically trained Western doctor decides to research and understand the full scope of healing modalities available worldwide?
Medicine is reimagined and a mission to bring holistic health to all- is born.
Faced with personal health challenges in her twenties and a health care system that was dismissive, Dr. Taz turned to nutrition, homeopathy and Eastern medical wisdom for answers. What she found was a wealth of information not yet taught in conventional medical schools. These systems of medicine including Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine with Dr. Andrew Weil along with diet and lifestyle changes, ultimately helped her heal herself over 25 years ago.
Passionate to share this new knowledge, she opened CentreSpringMD in Atlanta in 2009, a nationally recognized holistic and integrative medical practice designed to treat the whole family. From primary care to chronic disease management and specialty care, she has led the growth of CentrespringMD from a solo provider practice with 2 employees to a multi clinic company with 4 locations, including NYC and LA and a global telehealth platform with over 50 employees.

She has amassed a community of over 1 million people through her hugely popular You Tube, Instagram, TikTok and Podcast communities where she motivates and inspires her audience to understand their health holistically and how health determines the journey of life.
